0526 Chapter 11: The cowardly stowaways and the end of the world Section 34
Without similar experience, he certainly couldn't figure it out. Qu Yun's reason for being soft at first was naturally because she was really quite delicate and afraid of pain. She had always regarded herself as a little girl and didn't want to suffer more unnecessary torture for showing off her strength. But now, she wants to
All you have to do is distract these guys in front of you from doubts.
So she talked more. Reasonable inferences, meaningless provocations, sophisticated logical traps, and tasteless personality insults... As a strategist, Qu Yun would actually be like a rogue and talk endlessly. All because
The opportunity she has been waiting for is about to arrive, and success or failure depends on it!
Looking at Qu Yun, who had fallen into a deep nightmare and lost consciousness, the man with red spots had an uncertain face.
"I'd like you two to go and catch that little mouse that's heading here," he said through gritted teeth, as if he was angry that he had been completely seen through. "We must catch him alive."
Let us follow the mycelium of the tea tree mushroom and dive into Qu Yun's memories. At this time, everyone in the Yunshang Immortal Mansion has already met in the tunnels around the "underground city" and the caves that have been explored in advance, and then ran out for more than ten kilometers.
distance.
Qu Yun lay on Kang Sini's back and directed everyone to keep moving at high speed. She did not say until she passed through another "dungeon" similar to the one in the previous battle and escaped into an unfamiliar passage:
"Stop it. When we get here, if they have any way or want to chase us, they will have been discovered and intercepted when we passed the second work area."
"So it's temporarily safe here?" Even Mei Xianshi was already slightly out of breath.
This is an energy conversion room similar to the one they encountered when they first entered the interior of the myconid mothership. The walls are covered with strange-shaped fungi that contain energy and emit light.
It's said to be a room, but standing there in person it looks more like an underground cave. Since it's inside a biological spaceship, of course you can't expect it to be boxy.
It's just that compared to the previous situation near the entrance where the only passage was blocked inside, there are a total of six passages in all directions in this room.
Using Qu Yun's hearing to conduct subtle detection, it can be determined that five of them lead to spaces with more complex environments, while the remaining one is directly connected to a closed cabin a few meters away. It is such good luck to encounter a road that has many obstacles.
A room where you can escape, this is actually normal.
After all, this place will not be attacked by laser weapons like the surface deck. If there is a dead end with no purpose, there must be something fishy. Whether it is a deep space spacecraft designed by engineers or a living organism said to be designed by God, the most unlikely thing to appear is
Illogical and meaningless organ.
Coupled with the large amount of unstable light and heat that can affect the myconids' senses, there is no place more suitable for resting during an escape than here.
"Is there a way, or... think?" Yin Xiyi captured the key to Qu Yun's words.
"Yes," Qu Yun shrugged: "When I used [Burning] to trap the survival elites before, after the myconids in the nearest building confirmed that there were humans outside, almost all the people in the entire space, up and down, regardless of distance, were instantly killed.
All the myconids rushed out. This shows that there is a sufficiently advanced communication method between them..."
"So if they know that we are escaping in this direction, then there should be a dragnet waiting for us when we passed by the city where so many myconids work," Yin Xiyi finished the obvious reasoning for Qu Yun and emphasized again.
Worrying issues:
"You just said that if they 'want', it means that they probably have the ability to capture us, but they deliberately let us move freely?"
"Yes, this is very likely," Qu Yun smiled and nodded: "During the battle just now, did you carefully observe these magical wisdom mushrooms?"
Hearing this question, everyone turned their attention to Mei Xianshi. There is actually a misunderstanding here. Not all immortal cultivators have the ability to remember photographs, but the talent of Mei Xianshi, a specific individual, has been
The spiritual power is just activated.
Ordinary monks will indeed gradually improve their perception and memory abilities as their cultivation level rises, but just like the evolution of Lamarck's game, where there are theoretical limits for each person's attributes, the improvement of monks' abilities is inversely related to their qualifications.
Proportional.
In other words, a stupid person with excellent spiritual roots can successfully cultivate to the Nascent Soul realm, but even then his memory may not be much higher than that of ordinary people with high IQs.
As for why Mei Xianshi is so talented, I am afraid we can only understand it when she has the ability to dig out her memories from tens of thousands of years ago.
However, she did live up to expectations and answered: "The myconids that participated in the battle before have obvious differences in terms of job positions and individual strength. Considering the operation of the factory we observed during the ambush, the complex production research inside
There must also be management and obedience, division of labor and cooperation in activities.
However, after the war breaks out, there is no phenomenon that is bound to happen in human society, where the strong force the weak to rush forward and die as cannon fodder; nor is there a situation where the weak fight passively and hide behind, waiting for the strong to protect and save them.
This seems to be a natural ideology for these mushrooms.
No matter how strong or weak they are, or whether they have high or low positions, these creatures all rush forward to die like moths to a flame without caring about their own safety. So what Yunyun probably means is that the society of myconids is a classless society."
After receiving Mei Xianshi's questioning gaze, Qu Yun affirmed: "Well, that's exactly it. In a society where everyone is equal, after seeing our overwhelming fighting power, it's hard to imagine that the Mycopods would make a decision to let the second seat
The city's fellow citizens have decided to continue fighting to the death with us.
This is not my unauthorized speculation on the culture and social ethics of aliens without any basis, but a logical consideration, allowing those individuals who each have their own thoughts and can engage in various high-tech precision work to perform tasks that they are not good at.
Fighting and dying en masse is a stupid and ineffective strategy.
However, if a similar situation occurs in the human world, then all the non-combatant population in this 'city' on our escape route must have been evacuated. So under the assumption that we have indeed not escaped surveillance, only
Two possibilities.
One is that due to serious cultural and ideological differences, we are completely unable to understand and rationally deduce the plan layout of the mushrooms. But in fact, the possibility of this hypothesis is extremely low, because I clearly heard the transmission of thoughts between these mushrooms.
They use a purely spiritual communication method to communicate, and the content of the communication shows that the spiritual differences between these mushrooms and humans may be terrifyingly small. If I hadn’t seen them covered in mushroom skins with my own eyes, I would have thought
It's a group of humans talking.
Therefore, the only remaining possibility other than that we have indeed escaped capture is that the myconids allowed us to escape while always monitoring us, and used this indulgence as part of their plan. In this case, the '
The city's residents are the necessary means to get us to lower our guard."
"I also heard their conversation." Kang Sini concealed a tremor in her voice and buried her little head into Qu Yun's arms.
